4 Flaws Found in Widely Used Health Data Exchange Software

Four vulnerabilities were discovered in HAPI FHIR, an open-source healthcare interoperability software used broadly across the industry. The flaws could allow attackers to access sensitive patient records, bypass security boundaries between healthcare organizations, and disrupt service availability.

Why it matters: Healthcare organizations using HAPI FHIR face immediate risk of patient data exposure and system outages; security teams should assess whether their deployments are affected and plan patching.
